A/N: Sorry for the long wait. Classes where hell, no time to write properly. And than I forgot to type this chapter for about a week...
Hopefully Chapter 3 will be faster... after I finally got over my writers block about how to start it.
Now let´s not delay this any longer: HERE IS CHAPTER TWO!
Warnings: They´re still probably very much OOC, oh and confused!Lovi POV, so don´t expect the things to make sense...
Lovi POV
I woke up to the Birds singeing in the tree in front of my window and the almost midday sunlight shining through my window. I groaned because I forgot to draw the shades before going to sleep.
But then I remembered yesterday.
I blushed instantly. My whole bode grew hot.
How should I act today?
I will most likely blush every time I see Antonio.
It´s all that bastards fault for ignoring me all day.
Tomatobastard.
My stomach growled reminding me I could not hide the whole day.
Hopefully Tomatobastard is still sleeping, dreaming creepy and perverted dreams so I can go downstairs to grab a load of tomatoes and go back.
Hiding.
Misconception.
As soon as I opened the door the heavenly smell of Antonio´s breakfast cooking (or was it lunch already?) invaded my nose.
My stomach growled again.
What should I do?
Go downstairs and meet Tomatobastard? Awkward!
Go back and hide?
Knowing him hiding was not a good idea. He would come up and force me to eat. Better plan the encounter myself then be surprised by it.
I slowly went down the stairs and to the kitchen. The kitchen smelled of Tomatoes. It was mouthwatering.
I blushed as soon as I saw Antonio, his back. I knew it.
I mumbled: "Good morning" and sat down at the table, hoping Tomatobastard won´t hear me.
But he did: "Morning Lovi~" he said turning around. His smile wasn´t as creepy as usually. "You want breakfast?"
With my growling stomach I could not stop my instant answer: "YES!"
Instantly I looked down, trying to hide my blush.
I heard the noise of pots being emptied and the clinking of dishes.
Then footsteps.
I sat up straight again when a plate with delicious looking tomato-sandwiches was placed in front of me, but never looking at Antonio, who sat opposite of me and ate his sandwich.
I felt his eyes on me.
"Aren´t you starting to eat?"
"I can eat when I want" I glared at the bastard, grabbing my sandwich and taking a big bite.
It was as heavenly as it smelled, as always.
I munched my sandwich.
Saucy tomatoes, melty cheese and crunchy bread.
Heaven.
It made me forget about my embarrassment, my memories of yesterday. But they came rushing back when I looked up.
Looking in Antonio's eyes.
I blushed, remembering the touches. Wanting them again. Wishing for Antonio's care. Not being able to do anything without embarrassing myself completely.
I couldn´t break the eye contact.
"Give me another one" I demanded.
"Sure~" He got up and took my plate and his.
It gave me the chance to break our eye contact.
Why am I feeling so much warmer every time I look at the Tomatobastard since yesterday?
I still feel the same for him as before.
Just because of some touches?
It couldn´t be, could it?
My sandwich was back. I ate it, successfully stopping my disturbing thoughts again.
When I finished this time I didn´t look up, got up and stormed outside to the tomato garden, it always calmed me.
Not realizing I was still in my Pyjamas, namely: Boxers and an oversized Shirt I stole from Antonio long ago.
When it still was longer than I was tall. Now it was just enough to cover half of my thighs.
The shirt is covered in tomato prints and a Spanish flag.
So now I was outside.
Standing between the tomato plants standing neatly in rows.
Some of the plants had nice, ripe tomatoes, shining like little suns. Others were just after blooming, still small, hard and green.
The air was warm, but not summery humid. Just nice and warm.
I wandered deeper into the tomato forest, away from the rows you could see from the house. To a little clearing, there I sat down.
I listened to the sounds of nature.
The birds and trees.
It calmed me as always, but it could not calm me completely.
I sat there for a long time. At some point I laid down on the ground watching the clouds.
My clothes soaking from the damp ground.
My skin nice and warm from the sun.
My thoughts wandering. Going everywhere and every time coming back to Antonio.
Antonio. In the clouds. In shadows.
It annoyed me to no end. Seeing the person you want to forget, for a short time, everywhere.
I stood up. "Chigi!"
My whole back was soaked and muddy.
Now that I realized my muddy state I didn´t want to stay in my clothes any longer, so I went back to the house. Cursing some about how I now had to wash my Pyjamas.
When I reached the house, I tiptoed inside hoping Antonio wouldn´t see me.
Why? I didn´t know!
Hopes scattered. "Lovi! What happened? Are you hurt?"
"I tripped in your fields!" was all I said before I rushed upstairs to get out of my clothes and shower.
"Loviiii~" I heard from downstairs as I slammed the bathroom door closed.
For safety measures I locked the door.
Then I turned on the water, shed my clothes with minimal damage (more dirt on me) and stepped into the shower.
At first I just stood under the water, letting most of the dirt flow down the drain. Then I washed my body and hair.
When I finished I turned the water off, left the shower and dried myself of.
While I was drying my hair I realized something: While I tried to flee from Tomatobastard I rushed straight into the bathroom.
I had no clothes to wear in here.
My room was across the hall
Tomatobastrard could be everywhere in this house.
I dropped my towel. My stray lock already standing up again.
I had two choices:
Wear my pyjama again, get dirty again and shower again.
Or.
Run around the house in just a towel.
My shower was long enough so hot water would be rare and most things spoke against me wearing my old clothes again.
So I took my towel, now on the ground, and wrapped it around my waist.
My clothes stayed on the ground for Antonio to wash them.
I unlocked the door and spied up and down the corridor.
I heard Spanish singing from downstairs, so I was safe. Since Antonio was apparently occupied I went across the hall normally but silently, so I didn´t alert the singing Spaniard downstairs.
In my room I searched for clothes and decided on sweatpants and a green shirt and hopped in them.
I stayed in my room.
I did not want another awkward encounter with happy-go-lucky Antonio.
I turned on my PC so I could get some of my work done, which I got through E-Mail since there is peace and Internet is fast.
This is the only reason I could live at Antonio´s again. But this time Bella isn´t!
I checked my mail. 15 new mails.
Can´t they get anything done without me over there?
I went through the mail chronologically. Concentrating on working.
This was the first time today my thoughts strayed from Antonio longer than a few seconds.
I didn´t think about him.
I was so fixed on my work, I did not hear my door opening
"Hey Lovi! Dinner is served"
"Waah! Bastard! Ever heard of knocking? This is confidential!" I promptly pushed the button on my screen and it went black.
Even if Europa was at peace for a long time now it was a rule that governmental information could not be leaked to anyone. Even friends.
This was almost the only rule we countries had that humans could punish.
"I knocked but you didn´t hear me~"
"Then knock louder, bastard" I said while turning around on my chair and getting up.
Tomatobastard stood in the doorway after opening it completely. After he crept up to it he had just stuck in his head before.
I tried to leave my room to go to the dining room, but as I passed Antonio, he grabbed my arm and pulled me into a hug.
"Hey what are you doing?" I said pressing my hands against his chest. His well build chest.
What was I thinking?
A pervert is feeling me up and I am marveling his muscles.
"Checking if everything is alright with Lovi~ Because he tripped~"
"I did not trip and don´t talk to me as if I am a little child!"
Well. Shit!
"You lied to mee" Antonio said, getting teary eyed and looking at me with a look just short of puppy eyes.
I still struggled against Antonio´s grip, but my body resisted my will to resist.
I had to get away!
Fast!
My heart started to control my body.
Antonio´s grip was stronger. He didn´t use force in hugging me, but I was unable to escape them.
I got weaker by the second. Not from being tired, but from my heart numbing my mind, my muscles.
I gave up, so this would not end in my total defeat.
"Truth was embarrassing, but this is even more" I mumbled in Antonio´s shirt.
My face now pressed into his chest, my hands around his back.
Antonio was silent for once, hugging me into his chest, pressing our bodies together.
His head rested on my head.
I did not brush my hair and my curl stood up in a different angle than normal. An angle that had Tomatobastard´s chin resting right on it. Making it impossible for me to move without embarrassing myself more.
Great amount of more.
"So…" Antonio was breaking the silence "What did really happen on the field?"
"The weather was nice so I laid down looking at the clouds" I mumbled still hiding my face in Antonio´s warm chest
"It rained all day yesterday and you were away so long, Lovi~~ Don´t catch a cold~~" With the last sentence, which sounded like I was dying, he hugged me tighter.
"Hey! I won´t! And even if, it would be a cold not black death, which I survived by the way!" I tried breaking free again.
BAD move.
I had blushed before but I felt like I blushed 10 times more from the movement.
Pulling my head back Antonio´s chin rubbed straight over my curl.
I had to concentrate all my strength in not succumbing to the strange but heavenly feeling this caused, so my arms where useless, had no strength.
Tomatobastard finally lifted his head from mine and let go.
I missed the safe warmth instantly.
"What´s wrong? Do you have a fever?"
"NO!"
Not listening he bent down so our faces were on the same level and pressed his forehead to mine. His eyes closed.
My body wanted to move in. To kiss him. Like a magnet.
My mind was reeling. What if I kissed him? Would I have to move back to my own house? Would he want to see me ever again? Would he like me back? Did I love him? Or was it just because I grew up with him?
When my mind was back on my surroundings again, Antonio was a lot closer.
Did I move unconsciously?
Not this much I concluded.
Our lips just a couple of centimeters apart. Getting closer, but I stopped.
He wanted this, too?
I was torn between moving forward and bolting away. So I froze in place.
Lips really close. Just before my lips the bastrard stopped. It was frustrating.
Feeling the warmth, the breath, but not feeling the contract.
Frustration fuelled the determination of my heart. My heart winning over my brain, I moved.
Forward.
Millimeters apart, milliseconds away.
We touched lightly. The light touch was calming and exciting all the same, like electricity and a slow cool current on a summer day.
Antonio pressed his lips to mine. A firmer touch.
Antonio´s hands that had left my body snaked around my waist again at the same time my hands still on his chest wandered upwards around his neck. Antonio´s soft hair tickling my hands.
We stayed like that for some moments and would have kept kissing longer if I had to decide, but Antonio pulled away.
I opened my eyes, I had closed them some time ago, looking straight into Antonio´s shining green eyes. They were brighter than ever before.
I was speechless.
Antonio wasn´t.
"So Lovi likes my touch?"
Leave it to Tomatobastard to ruin a perfect moment.
How did you like this chapter? I hope you could read it properly with all the different formating...
I have to tell you a little story about this chapter.
I already said I write this in class. And one day a girl asked my what I am writing all the time and if she could read it. I only had chapter 2 with me, written up to shortly before the shower scene. No Yaoi/BL action so I thought it was OK and gave it to her. She liked it and wanted to read the rest. But...
She honestly thought Lovi was a girl. She didn´t realize it when I said his once and told her his full name Lovino, even after learning Latin for 4 Years. She just realized it when I slipped up for a second time and her reaction was uber hilarious. I was like: Ehh. I told you before and you could have realized with the name. and she was like: You are a total freak. WTH are you writing?
It was really fun! xDxDxD
So review and let me know what I could do better and what was so bad you can´t fix it. You can also praise me if there is something to praise me about...
